Chapter 489: Halloween Mountain (1/2)

A brilliant smile appeared on Ye Bufan's lips, and then he straightened his clothes and walked out of the courtyard.

Qingtian Temple is located on the top of Qingtian Mountain. It is majestic and magnificent, surrounded by fairy mist, as if it is a fairy palace, giving people a great visual impact.

"Huh? Brother Daozi is out."

Ye Bufan had just walked out of the room when a cry of surprise came from the side.

He looked in the direction of the sound and saw a team of disciples in uniform clothes coming up to him. The leader was a young man in his twenties.

"Brother Daozi, you are finally out of retreat. We have been looking forward to it for a long time."

The young man walked over quickly, shouting excitedly, with a flush of excitement on his cheeks, looking quite excited.

His name is Li Wenyuan, an inner disciple of Qingtian Temple. He is the same age as Ye Bufan and is from the same sect. He is one of the best disciples of Qingtian Temple.

And he also has a special title - martial arts fanatic, calm and taciturn, and rarely communicates with others.

But this time he was particularly excited, which showed that he had been looking forward to the centennial celebration for a long time.

"Well, are you ready?"

Ye Bufan asked calmly.

The people in front of him were all inner disciples of Qingtian Temple, and they were the best of the inner disciples, who would represent Qingtian Temple to participate in the centennial celebration.

"Brother, please rest assured, we are all ready to go."

Li Wenyuan nodded solemnly, then bowed and said.

"Very good, in that case, then follow me."

Ye Bufan walked out while speaking. Although his steps were steady, they implied a certain rhythm, and every step he took seemed to be stepping on the air.

The seemingly simple and plain steps actually contained some wonderful rules.

This is the unique skill of Qingtian Temple, "Stepping on the Clouds", which is not offensive, but has unpredictable power.

Li Wenyuan and other Qingtian Temple disciples followed behind him, and many of them had unconcealable respect on their faces.

"Brother Daozi is really amazing. After just half a month of hard training, his cultivation has improved several times compared to before. He will definitely win the first place this time."

"Who said it wasn't? Daozi's talent is rare in our Qingtian Temple. Even the head teacher praised him and said that Brother Daozi has the opportunity to enter the legendary emperor realm."

"Hmph, I want to see who dares to challenge our Qingtian Temple at this centenary celebration."

A group of disciples talked a lot, and their eyes looked at Ye Bufan more and more fiery.

Ye Bufan glanced at them indifferently, without any emotional fluctuations, and still kept a steady pace, leading all the disciples to the main peak Qingtian Temple.

The scenery along the way was magnificent, like a fairyland, with various spirit beasts flying and galloping in the mountain stream, a peaceful and tranquil atmosphere.

Ye Bufan led a group of Qingtian Temple disciples and met many outer disciples of Qingtian Temple along the way.

They followed from a distance, talking a lot, and were all guessing about the progress of Brother Daozi's cultivation.

"Look, that's Brother Daozi, so handsome!"

"How did his aura become so strong? Has he made another breakthrough?"

"It should be. I heard that Master Daozi has been in seclusion for many days for this centennial celebration."

"Such a terrifying cultivation speed, apart from the headmaster, only Brother Daozi has achieved it."

"Oh, I really want to get to know Daozi. Even if I can only learn and practice with Daozi, it would be a great honor."

Hearing the discussions of the people around him, Li Wenyuan frowned slightly.

He turned his head and glanced at Ye Bufan beside him. There was a hint of jealousy in his eyes, but he quickly restrained it and did not attract the attention of others.

Qingtian Temple covers an area of ​​hundreds of thousands of hectares, with buildings standing in rows, divided into five giant squares in the east, south, west, north and center, each of which is magnificent.

Not long after, everyone arrived at the main peak, Qingtian Peak. This mountain range stretches for thousands of miles, magnificent and spectacular. From a distance, it looks like a sleeping dragon.

A magnificent and solemn square was built on the top of the main peak, with nine towering stone pillars standing on it, forming a pattern of nine palaces and eight trigrams.

On the nine stone pillars, lifelike runes were drawn, revealing rich spiritual power fluctuations, showing their excellent quality.

In addition, there are all kinds of rare treasures, elixirs, magic weapons, and even alchemy furnaces.

Although these things cannot be compared with the Dan Sect, they are also extremely valuable.

Today is the day of the centenary celebration. Countless disciples of Qingtian Temple gathered here, and the scene was magnificent and shocking.

They stood in distinct areas and were chatting in groups of three or five.

They were men and women, with varying levels of cultivation, but without exception, they all had a strong and powerful aura, terrifying strength, and were extremely young.

If these disciples were placed in other second-rate sects, they would at least be elders, but in Qingtian Temple, they were ordinary outer disciples.

This shows the profound foundation and powerful strength of Qingtian Temple.

"Brother Daozi has arrived, all the brothers and sisters should come and greet him."

Li Wenyuan led Ye Bufan to the stage.

Hearing this, the originally noisy venue immediately became silent, and then everyone's eyes were all projected on Ye Bufan.

The eyes of these people were full of awe, envy... and deep admiration, as well as a bit of fanatical worship.

Because the young man in front of them is not only their Daozi brother, but also the future headmaster of Qingtian Temple, and the most dazzling existence in the entire Daoxuan Domain.

"Meet Senior Brother Daozi!"

"Senior Brother Daozi, you are finally released from seclusion!"

"Senior Brother Daozi, your retreat is too tight and makes us all anxious."

"Senior Brother Daozi, have you finished your retreat?"

"Senior Brother Daozi has unparalleled magical powers and will definitely be proud of others in the future..."

.............

These Qingtian Temple disciples rushed forward to say hello, their attitude was extremely respectful, even a bit flattering.

Especially the eyes of the girls looking at Ye Bufan were flashing with hot flames.

Amidst the cheers of many Qingtian Temple disciples, Ye Bufan slowly walked onto the stage.

His eyes passed over the bodies of everyone below, and a faint smile appeared at the corner of his mouth.

"Everyone is free of charge."

Ye Bufan raised his hand and pressed it softly, and said loudly:

"In this centenary celebration, Qingtian Temple will surely achieve greater glory. I hope everyone will work hard to practice and jointly contribute to the prosperity of Qingtian Temple."

Hearing his words, many Qingtian Temple disciples were excited and cheered.

"Follow your orders, Senior Brother Daozi!"

"We swear allegiance to Qingtian Temple!"

"Look at the eternal prosperity in the blue sky, and it will last forever!"

For a moment, the sound echoed through the sky, shaking the entire Qingtian Peak.

Then he waved his hand, and everyone became quiet.

"Now, let the headmaster say a few words."

Ye Bufan turned around and gave instructions to the Taoist boy beside him.

"Lord Daozi, please wait for a moment, I will go and ask for the master teacher!"

The little Taoist boy bowed and saluted, and hurriedly left the hall.

A moment later, a melodious and loud sound exploded over the entire Qingtian Peak for a long time.

"Daozi Ye Bufan has only been practicing for a hundred years, but he is already at the peak of the third level of saints. He is the leader. This is my luck in Qingtian Temple. I am very relieved!"

Hearing the appearance of the leader's voice, many disciples fell to their knees and bowed respectfully.

Immediately, an old man with white beard and hair came from mid-air with heavy steps and landed on the main peak square.

I saw this old man with a beard hanging down on his chest. He looked like a fairy and gave people an unfathomable feeling. He was none other than Wu Haotian, the contemporary headmaster of Qingtian Temple!

He looks very old, wearing gray clothes and cloth shoes, with his hands behind his back, but he does not show any signs of twilight, but is full of energy.

A pair of bright eyes glanced around, a look of satisfaction appeared on his face, he nodded, his eyes stayed on Ye Bufan, and his eyes glowed with joy.

"I've met the headmaster!"

Many disciples bowed respectfully.

Wu Haotian raised his hands and waved his sleeves, sending out a soft force to help everyone up.

He nodded slightly, then looked at Ye Bufan and said calmly: "I will not go to this celebration as a teacher. If you have anything to do, please discuss it with your senior uncles."

"Master... you're not going?"

Ye Bufan was stunned immediately.

According to the rules of Qingtian Temple, Wu Haotian will personally attend every centenary celebration.

Moreover, Qingtian Temple, as one of the organizers of the centenary celebration, must prepare many matters, such as which famous sects or loose cultivators to invite, as well as the materials needed to hold the celebration, all need to be handled by him.

It can be said that Wu Haotian has been presiding over the preparations for the celebration during this period of time, but now he suddenly decided not to go.

However, the surprise on Ye Bufan's face did not last long, and soon disappeared without a trace, replaced by a look of realization, as if he had thought of something.

However, when Li Wenyuan heard these words, his expression suddenly froze and he looked at the headmaster in astonishment. He did not expect such a result at all.

In the past, every time Qingtian Temple held a celebration event, the headmaster would personally attend and preside over it to ensure nothing went wrong.

But who knew he wouldn't go this time, which made Li Wenyuan feel caught off guard.

Others behaved quite differently.

At this moment, the expressions of all the disciples suddenly changed, and deep worry emerged in their eyes.

They knew very well that without Wu Haotian's support, Qingtian Temple would be like a desert without water, and it would dry up in an instant.

This is undoubtedly fatal to many disciples.

Li Wenyuan asked cautiously: "Headmaster, how can you not participate in such a grand ceremony as the centenary celebration in person?"

"I suddenly felt something in the past few days, and gained a new understanding of a higher realm, so I won't go."

Wu Haotian looked calm and said calmly.

"A higher realm?"

As soon as these words came out, everyone's expressions changed drastically and they looked excited.

You know, the further a monk goes in his training, the harder it is to advance.

Especially after becoming a saint, every level of promotion is like climbing to the sky.

And now, the headmaster actually said that his understanding of the realm has reached a higher level. How can this make them not excited?

"Congratulations to the headmaster, congratulations to the headmaster."

Li Wenyuan looked ecstatic and quickly raised his hands to congratulate him.

Many other disciples also agreed, excitedly saying yes again and again.

But Wu Haotian still seemed calm and calm, without any pride.

"Okay, everyone should perform their duties and step back."

He waved his hand and explained a few words casually.

"Follow the law!"

Many disciples responded in unison, then returned to their respective positions and continued to practice.

After everyone retreated, only Ye Bufan was left standing.

"Master, what happened?"

Seeing everyone around him leaving, Ye Bufan frowned and asked.

He knew that the master was definitely not because of new insights, but because of other reasons.

Wu Haotian looked solemn and looked at him solemnly, his eyes cold: "Something happened to Yan Ze."

Ye Bufan's heart skipped a beat: "What happened?"

He had long felt that something was wrong, but he didn't expect that something would actually happen.

"I don't know the specific situation yet, I just have a feeling in my heart."

Wu Haotian said slowly: "And no news has been sent back so far. It is probably more serious than bad."

"So Master, are you going to go there in person?" Ye Bufan guessed.

"Well, I've been restless these past few days. I always feel like something big is going to happen, so I have to go there myself."

Wu Haotian looked solemn.

He pondered for a moment, then shook his head and said, "But before that, you have to host the celebration for me, and no mistakes will be made. Do you understand?"

"Yes, disciple understands!"

Ye Bufan bowed and solemnly agreed.

Wu Haotian nodded and said a few more words: "Remember, your current strength is enough to win the top three in the centenary celebration. You must not use the exercises and martial arts over there."

After a pause, he said with a solemn expression:

"One more thing. The ancestors' cultivation has reached a critical moment. Don't disturb them unless it is absolutely necessary."

"Disciple understands!"

Ye Bufan bowed again and agreed.

"In this case, you should go down the mountain now and lead the elders and disciples to All Saints Mountain. Remember, don't waste time."

Wu Haotian warned earnestly.

"Yes, disciple, take the order!"

Ye Bufan bowed again.

"good!"

Wu Haotian patted him on the shoulder: "Then I will take my leave for the time being."

After he finished speaking, his body turned into a golden auspicious cloud and disappeared into the sky in the blink of an eye.

"Master, walk slowly."

After watching him leave, Ye Bufan turned around and looked at the empty square in front of him, his face uncertain.

After a long time, he suddenly smiled strangely: "Ancestor's cultivation has reached a critical moment? Well, well, if I refine them, my strength will definitely be greatly improved..."

After finishing speaking, the corner of his mouth traced an evil arc, and he walked out of the hall.

The disciples and elders of Qingtian Temple who were participating in the celebration were already waiting outside the hall. When they saw Ye Bufan coming out, they all gathered around him.

Ye Bufan no longer hesitated, waved his hand and commanded: "Let's go."

............

Halloween Mountain.

A deserted land located in the eastern part of Daoxuan Territory is a veritable forbidden land of life. It is said that tens of thousands of saints have died here, so it is named All Saints Mountain.

Later, an emperor took action and transformed it into a huge martial arts arena for monks to practice and compete.

After thousands of years of development, it was chosen as the competition ground for the centenary celebration by the four holy places in Daoxuan Domain, and it became completely prosperous.

Today, at the foot of Halloween Mountain, a dense crowd of monks gathered.

At least there are more than hundreds of millions, and they all come from various sects, aristocratic families, dynasties, hidden families, and even casual cultivators...

now,

Everyone looked at the top of Halloween Mountain with fiery eyes, and some even had their legs trembling, unable to hold back the excitement in their hearts.

However, among the crowd, a group of people also attracted a lot of attention, because these people are so dazzling, and they are all peerless fairies...
